Super cool fiat lux! Would definitely recommend if you're interested in philosophizing about education in a small(er) group setting. Not gonna lie, 20 students was still too big for me to feel comfortable participating (at least at the time), but I still had a great time listening to everyone's discussions around the readings.
The course structure was a simple reading selection each week, with Prof. Guhin leading the discussion but letting anyone chime in with their thoughts. We covered a bunch of different thinkers from Plato to modern with different philosophies about the purpose of education. It was particularly helpful for me at a time when I wasn't really understanding the colossal and increasingly capital-focused education system I found myself thrust into at UCLA and, although I still think our modern education is deeply flawed (but that's a different story), the class certainly helped with my understanding of where we are.
Of course, everyone will get something different out of it; it's a humanities course. Take this and/or as many other small classes as you can, they're some of the best educational experiences you'll have at this huge school!
